This server is called Dominion SMP and it is a Hermitcraft style survival world. It is mostly vanilla and it feels like a long term place where people actually stick around and build stuff together.

There is a strong focus on community and teamwork. Players run a shopping district where you can trade and set up your own shops. There is proximity chat so you can talk to people when you are close to them in game and there is a web map to see the world from above. TNT duping is allowed and there are some quality of life datapacks like AFK display and durability pings and extra mob heads and armor stand statues.
The rules are pretty simple. No griefing or stealing or harassment and no hacks or exploits. PVP has to be agreed on and you should not build lag machines or spam farms. Chat should stay mature and friendly.
You have to be at least 16 to apply and they want real effort in the application. They also allow people with past bans as long as they are honest about it. If you like survival with a close group and a big shared world that grows over time this server feels like that kind of place.
